Blue Jays Recall Pitcher from Triple-A After Disastrous Cody Ponce ...
The Toronto Blue Jays' pitching staff is running thin.
www.si.comHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
- Cody Ponce underwent ACL surgery on his right knee after injuring it during his Blue Jays debut in late March 2026. The surgery was reported as successful, and the expectation is that he will miss significant time but could aim to return later in the 2026 season or at the start of spring training the following year, depending on recovery.[3][4]
- Earlier updates indicated he suffered a right ACL sprain during the outing against the Colorado Rockies, with uncertainty at the time about whether surgery would be required; that determination was later clarified with the surgical report.[2][6]
- Additional coverage noted the injury led to the Blue Jays carting him off the field and raised concerns about his immediate availability, though management remained hopeful for a return in the future.[6][9]
If you’d like, I can pull the most current official team injury notes or compile a quick timeline of public updates with dates and sources. I can also summarize fantasy implications for the Jays’ pitching staff moving forward.
